How do I correct a posted entry?

Reverse it and post the right one.

You will have cancelled a posted entry.

Before you start

You need the write permission and the original's period must be open.

Steps

  1. Find the entry and press Reverse, then confirm.
  2. Post the correct entry as a new one.

What you will see

A new posted entry with inverted lines appears and the original shows Reversed.

If something goes wrong

  • Reversal is dated like the original; if that period is closed it is refused.
  • Reports include both entries, which cancel.
  • Bills, cheques and automatic entries are corrected the same way.
